New Environments, New Identities, New Threats
10:00 AM - 10:20 AM
We’ve spent years locking down human authentication—MFA, conditional access, risk-based policies. We’ve made it so hard for attackers to steal a human identity that they’ve moved on… to something much easier. Machines. APIs, service accounts, cloud workloads, containers, IoT devices—all of them have identities. And most are unprotected. Attackers don’t need phishing anymore. They steal API keys, exploit hardcoded credentials, and move laterally through unmanaged machine identities—completely unnoticed. We built a Zero Trust model for people. Now we need one for machines.

A path to extend the Digital Identity Security Platform
10:40 AM - 11:00 AM
Matt will review some of the key use cases Venafi has already solved for customers together with Stefan, before giving an outlook on the product development roadmap and key technology trends for companies looking to manage their machine identities in a central management plain. After CyberArk’s recent acquisition of Venafi Matt is part of the team tasked to rethink digital identity security and will share some of the synergies he sees between the two platforms and how customers can leverage them together for zero trust approaches.
